Hi Tina

Do you think you maybe could have low blood pressure? I think (sorry darlin to say this) you really should ask the practice nurse to take your bp and see what she thinks. Aso, you have had so much stress recently and this can affect every part of us. You could also have some sort of ear infection.

We are still free all next Thursday and would love to meet you. We'll pick you both up from the station and take you to the hospital. We'll wait with you so you are not alone and take you back to the station afterwards. Just let us know.

Much love
Jeanxxxx

Hi Tina

Sorry to hear you're getting dizzy spells. Sometimes you can have them if you get up too quickly after sitting or lying in bed. It's a good idea though to be checked out to be sure.

Thanks jean but i think andrew has got off work so shall be driving well hoping anyway lol but i am free anyday.
Hi mel, i'm ok wrists playing up tipical comes straight back after hospital, splints not work yet but have to give time,
I have been speaking to some one at work and she has wrist problems and in her elbows like me adn she has siaticka, dizzy spells headaches and she also has low throids and she says when she got treated for the low throads she still gets things but they carmed down a lot but the doctor told her it all because of her throids and she got treated i find it strange that i have all the same problems but my doctor dose not think it cause of throids so i think i am gonna go see nother doctor when i off next week and explaine that i would like to at least try minimum dose for throids see if it dose anything cause i cant carry on like this with work.
I am also worried about Daniel cause when i said i was feeling dizzy yesterday daniel said oh i always feel dizzy, i feel like i drunk some times and i thought cheeky to say you feel frunk but i questioned him and he said he had it for a while, could this be the methtrexate i wonder.

Dear Tina,

Sorry if I seem to keep asking the same questions but have you been checked yet for low thryoid?

Mark, as you know, was dx with this in September and he had ALL the symptoms! One of them was extreme pains down his legs and back and dizzy spells accompanied by cold sweats around his head area.....

Ask your GP to check this for you...

RE MTX, it can cause a dizzy feeling and also a kind of weak feeling, I had this alot when I first began but it did go away. Best to tell Dan's rheumy though....

How is he getting on with the Milk Thistle or are they too chunky to swallow?

Love,

A

oh no amanda he is very good at taking tablets, can swollom massive ones good job after all meds been on, me on the other hand takes me ages to swallow the smallest of pills lol.
Yes i do have low throids cause i was tested but when i saw the specialist i wasnt having these problems and he said it only slightly low so dont need to do anything about it but i think something should be donw or i should be tested again at least.
